This was one of my favorite hostels due to the location. It's a hidden gem of Thailand very close to most major temples and only a 15 min walk to Kohsan Rd. There is a Legendary Pad Thai restaurant just across the bridge which comes alive in the evening. It also doesn't feel like it's in the middle of a tourist area so it allows you to submerge yourself in Thai culture. I highly recommend this place. Just be aware there is many metal/wood working shops around so can be noisy if your not an early riser like myself. They do seem to respect others and wait until after 8 or 9am to start any real work. I really don't notice them inside the room, not anymore then the typical traffic you'd hear almost anywhere you'd stay in Thailand.
